In this article we will guide you a simplest way to install latest release of Wine 1.6.2 version in RHEL 7.0/6.x/5.x, CentOS 7.0/6.x/5.x and Fedora 20-12 using source code.

WINE

Wine stands for “Wine is not an emulator” and it is an open source software which allows Linux, Mac, FreeBSD, and Solaris users to run Windows applications without a copy of Microsoft Windows. Wine is not a virtual machine or emulator it just provides the binary compatibility. In this artical we will know about the wine installation in Linux.

First check is there any wine package is installed in our machine by using the following command

[root@localhost ~]# rpm -qa|grep wine

If there is any wine version is already installed remove it by using yum remove wine command to avoid some problems when the time of installation and in the running of applications.

Before we proceeding to install wine package we need to install some prerequisites by using the following command

[root@localhost ~]# yum install libX11-devel freetype-devel zlib-devel libxcb-devel

After the installation of that change the path to /usr/src folder and then  Download the wine package by using as follows

[root@localhost ~]# cd /usr/src [root@localhost src]# wget http://dl.winehq.org/wine/source/1.8/wine-1.8.3.tar.bz2

We can also get the latest version of wine from their official site

After the successful download extract the wine package by using tar command.

[root@localhost src]# tar -xjvf wine-1.8.3.tar.bz2

Then change the path to the wine directory

[root@localhost src]#cd wine-1.8.3/

Now run the configure script

For 32-Bit Systems: # ./configure  For 64-Bit Systems: # ./configure  --enable-win64

We can find 32 bit or 64 bit by using arch command

Sample output:

After that run the command make

[root@localhost wine-1.8.3]# make

Now run the command make install as follows

[root@localhost wine-1.8.3]# make install

After the installation completes check version by using as follows

On 32-Bit Systems # wine --version  On 64-Bit Systems # wine64 –version

When you first time try to run the wine commands it shows the dialogue box to install wine mono installer as shown below

Now we can open the windows application notepad in the Linux by using the wine as follows

For 32-bit systems

[root@localhost ~]# wine notepad

For 64-bit systems

[root@localhost ~]# wine64 notepad

We can get the wine compatibility application list from here, Enjoy the windows programs and games in Linux. Have a fun!

Install Wine 1.6.2 in RHEL 7.0/6.x/5.x, CentOS 7.0/6.x/5.x and Fedora 20-12

Installing Wine 1.6.2 in RHEL, CentOS and Fedora

Step 1: Installing Dependency Packages

We need to install ‘Development Tools‘ with some core development tools such gcc, flex, bison, debuggers etc. these software’s are must required to compile and build new packages, install them using YUM command.

# yum -y groupinstall 'Development Tools' # yum -y install libX11-devel freetype-devel

Step 2: Downloading Wine 1.6.2

Download the source file using Wget command under /tmp directory as a normal User.

$ cd /tmp $ wget http://nchc.dl.sourceforge.net/project/wine/Source/wine-1.6.2.tar.bz2

Step 3: Extracting Wine 1.6.2

Once the file is downloaded under /tmp directory, use the below commands to extract it.

$ tar -xvf wine-1.6.2.tar.bz2 -C /tmp/

Step 4: Installing Wine 1.6.2

It is recommended to compile and build Wine installer as a normal User. Run the following commands as normal user. (Note : The installer might take up-to 20-30 minutes and in the middle it will ask you to enter root password).

On 32-Bit Systems

$ cd wine-1.6.2/ $ ./tools/wineinstall

On 64-Bit Systems

$ cd wine-1.6.2/ $ ./configure --enable-win64 $ make # make install

Once the installation completes run the “winecfg” configuration tool from KDE or GNOME desktop to see the supported configuration. If you don’t have any of the desktop, you can install it by using the below command as root user.

# yum groupinstall "X Window System" "GNOME Desktop Environment" OR # yum groupinstall "X Window System" "KDE (K Desktop Environment)"  # yum groupinstall "GNOME Desktop"        [On CentOS 7]  # yum groupinstall "Server with GUI"      [On RHEL 7]

Once the X Window System installed, run the command as normal user to see wine configuration.

$ winecfg             [On 32-Bit System] $ wine64cfg           [On 64-Bit System]

Step 5: Running Wine 1.6.2

To run the Wine, you must specify the full path to the executable program. For example shown below.

$ wine notepad $ wine notepad.exe  $ wine c:\\windows\\notepad.exe

Wine is not perfect, because while using wine we see so many programs crashes. I think wine team will soon fix all bugs in their upcoming version and meanwhile do share your comments using our below form.

How to Install JAVA 7 (JDK 7u75) on CentOS/RHEL 7/6/5 and Fedora

During installation of Java using rpm files I faced issues many times. After that i found a better way to install java from Sun site. Using below steps i have installed java successfully many times without facing any issues. We can also install multiple version of java easily if required. Oracle has also released Java 8. To install it read article Install Java 8 in CentOS, Redhat and Fedora.

Use following step by step instructions to install or update Java. I recommend to read carefully instruction for downloading Java from Linux command line.

Downloading Latest Java Archive

Java latest archive is available on its official site. We recommend to download latest version of Java from Oracle official website.

For 64 Bit:-

# cd /opt/ # wget --no-cookies --no-check-certificate --header "Cookie: gpw_e24=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.oracle.com%2F; oraclelicense=accept-securebackup-cookie" "http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/7u75-b13/jdk-7u75-linux-x64.tar.gz"

For 32 Bit:-

# cd /opt/ # wget --no-cookies --no-check-certificate --header "Cookie: gpw_e24=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.oracle.com%2F; oraclelicense=accept-securebackup-cookie" "http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/7u75-b13/jdk-7u75-linux-i586.tar.gz"

Note: If Above wget command doesn’t not work for you watch this example video to download java source archive using terminal.

After completing download, Extract archive using following command. Use archive file as per your system configuration. For this example we are using CentOS 6.6 (64 bit) system.

# tar xzf jdk-7u75-linux-x64.tar.gz

Install Java with Alternatives

After extracting Java archive file, we just need to set up to use newer version of Java using alternatives. Use the following commands to do it.

# cd /opt/jdk1.7.0_75/ # alternatives --install /usr/bin/java java /opt/jdk1.7.0_75/bin/java 2 # alternatives --config java

There are 4 programs which provide 'java'.    Selection    Command ----------------------------------------------- *  1           /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.6.0-openjdk/bin/java  + 2           /opt/jdk1.7.0_60/bin/java    3           /opt/jdk1.7.0_72/bin/java    4           /opt/jdk1.7.0_75/bin/java  Enter to keep the current selection[+], or type selection number: 4 [Press Enter]

Now you may also required to set up javac and jar commands path using alternatives command.

# alternatives --install /usr/bin/jar jar /opt/jdk1.7.0_75/bin/jar 2 # alternatives --install /usr/bin/javac javac /opt/jdk1.7.0_75/bin/javac 2 # alternatives --set jar /opt/jdk1.7.0_75/bin/jar # alternatives --set javac /opt/jdk1.7.0_75/bin/javac 

Check Installed Java Version

Use following command to check which version of Java is currently being used by system.

# java -version  java version "1.7.0_75" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_75-b13) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.75-b04, mixed mode)

Configuring Environment Variables

Most of Java based application’s uses environment variables to work. Use following commands to set up these variable properly. It’s also good to add following commands to any start-up script like ~/.bashrc or ~/.bash_profile.

• Setup JAVA_HOME Variable

  • # export JAVA_HOME=/opt/jdk1.7.0_75

• Setup JRE_HOME Variable

  • # export JRE_HOME=/opt/jdk1.7.0_75/jre

• Setup PATH Variable

  • # export PATH=$PATH:/opt/jdk1.7.0_75/bin:/opt/jdk1.7.0_75/jre/bin

I hope above steps will help you for installing Java on your Linux system. You can follow above steps to install multiple version of Java as same time but you can use only one version at a time.
